Context of Isaiah 35:9

7Then the hot sand will become a pool, and dry ground will have springs. Grass will become cattails and rushes in the home of jackals. 8A highway will be there, a roadway. It will be called the Holy Road. Sinners won’t travel on it. It will be for those who walk on it. Godless fools won’t wander ⌞onto it⌟. Lions won’t be there. Wild animals won’t go on it. They won’t be found there. But the people reclaimed ⌞by the Lord⌟ will walk ⌞on it⌟. 10The people ransomed by the Lord will return. They will come to Zion singing with joy. Everlasting happiness will be on their heads ⌞as a crown⌟. They will be glad and joyful. They will have no sorrow or grief.
